Description

Generated .classpath entries of kind "var" need to be marked exported by default so that referenced projects have visibility to them. Or provide an option to specifiy that that entries should be exported.

Example: <classpathentry kind="var" path="M2_REPO/mx4j/mx4j/3.0.1/mx4j-3.0.1.jar"/>

should me made...

<classpathentry exported="true" kind="var" path="M2_REPO/mx4j/mx4j/3.0.1/mx4j-3.0.1.jar"/>
